I wanted a cat more than anything else，and finally my parents gave in and said that we could have one.We went to an animal home and saw dozens of kinds of cats.We went from cage to cage until we saw a little kitten at the back of one of the cages.It looked scared，but when I picked it up，it kept licking my hand and I knew it was the one we would bring home.After we got Jupiter home，I played with it all day.What I noticed when I played with it was that I would sneeze a lot and my arms became red.My nose would also be runny and my eyes would water.I tried to hide these signs from my mother，but she noticed them finally and told me that I was suffering from cats！Even worse，we couldn't keep Jupiter! That was a sad day in my young life.I thought I would never recover.But a lucky thing happened.One of our neighbors down the street was willing to take Jupiter in and I was able to visit it all the time，as long as I didn't get too close.
In the end，it wasn't such a terrible thing after all.

“Good morning，”the new teacher said.“I'm Ernesto Flores，your teacher for fifth grade.”In all his years in school，Julio had never heard a teacher use his or her first name.Of course，the students always found out what they were，but it was up to the students to discover this information for themselves.
“Now I'd like to find out who you are，”said Mr. Flores.He began to call the roll(点名)，starting with the boys.Julio shook his head.Teachers always began with the girls.
“Julio Sanchez，”called Mr. Flores，pronouncing it Hulio.That was the correct way to say the name in Spanish.
Several kids laughed.They had never heard Julio's name pronounced without the J.
Mr. Flores looked up from the roll book.“Isn't that how you say your name？”he asked Julio.“Or do you prefer Julio with a J？”
“At home, they call me Hulio.But at school everyone calls me Julio，”Julio said.
“Do you like two pronunciations of your name？”asked the teacher.“It's a good Spanish name and you should be proud of it.”
Julio smiled.“I know，”he said，“but it doesn't matter to me.”
“Are you sure？”asked Mr. Flores.“Your name is a very important part of you.”
Julio thought for a moment.“Okay，”he said.“From now on，everyone please call me Hulio.Puerto Rico, where I was born，used to be a Spanish colony(殖民地)．”
“That's right，”said Mr. Flores.“Can you tell us something about Puerto Rico？”
“I came here when I was only eight months old.I don't remember anything，”Julio replied.
“I think you can interview your parents instead，”Mr. Flores said.
Julio nodded.It would be fun to learn more about the place where he had been born.
Julio had to admit(承认)that Mr. Flores was creative and interesting.

Part of the reason that English has grown as a world language is that it easily adjusts to change.However，this means that what one was taught as a child in school may be out of date many years later.When words or phrases change，it can make speakers feel“wrong”because they were taught that something else was“right”．
One example of this is a term connected to school itself.Today，it is common for people to say that they“graduated”high school or college.The word“graduate”has two common meanings.One is to mark off a series.The other meaning is closely related.As you move through school，you cross off a series of achievements：grade school，middle school，high school，and college.So，in a way，school itself is“graduated”．
So，when people used to speak of getting a degree，they said they“graduated from college”．“To graduate college”would have meant to mark it off by year—the first year，the second year etc.Similarly，“to graduate to college”would have meant to complete high school and move up to the next level.
But as happens often in English，when people understand your meaning，smaller words can disappear.“I graduated college”is now easy to say.This may distress people who were taught that you had to use“from”to be correct.But this is not the first time this phrase has been simplified.It used to be that you said，“I was graduated from college，”instead of，“I graduated from college.”
You can't know what English will keep and what it will lose.Who could imagine that we would still say we“dial”a phone number when we now push buttons on our cellphone Yet we know what it means.
28．What do we know about the word “graduate”？
A．It has two similar meanings.
B．There was a change in its meanings.
C．It had nothing to do with school at first.
D．It got an extra meaning during its development.
29．Which of the following is the newest usage of “graduate”？
A．I was graduated from college.
B．I was to graduate to college.
C．I graduated from college.
D．I graduated college.
30．The underlined word “distress” probably means？“ ”．
A．change B．correct
C．worry D．hurt
31．What's the best title for the text？
A．Right or wrong
B．Words come and go in English
C．English is a very changeable language
D．How should English be taught in school
D
If English means endless new words，difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation，you are wrong.Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language
According to a new study by a British university，learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power.Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter.This is the area of the brain which processes(处理)information.It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.
The study also found the effect is greater when the younger people learn a second language.A team led by Dr Andrea Mechelli，from University College London，took a group of Britons who only spoke English.They were compared with a group of “early bilinguals” who had learnt a second language before the age of five，as well as a number of later learners. Scans showed that grey matter density in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language.But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language，the smaller the difference.“Our findings suggest that the structure(结构)of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language，”said the scientists.
It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales，has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills.“Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible(灵活的)，”he said.“You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.”
The findings had the same result in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and thirty-four.Reading，writing，and comprehension were all tested.The results showed that the younger they started to learn，the better.“Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world，”explained the scientists.
32．The underlined word“bilingual”probably means？“ ”．
A．a researcher on language learning
B．a second language learner
C．a person who can speak two languages
D．an active language learner
33．We may know from the scientific findings that .
A．the earlier you start to learn a second language，the higher the grey matter density is
B．there is no difference between a later second language learner and one who doesn't know a second language
C．the experience of learning a second language has bad effect on people's brain
D．the ability of learning a second language is changing all the time
34．In the last two paragraphs，the author wants to tell us that .
A．learning a second language is the same as studying maths
B．early learning of a second language helps you a great deal in studying other subjects
C．Italian is the best choice for you as a second language
D．you'd better choose the ages between 2 and 34 to learn a second language
35．The main idea of this passage is .
A．science on learning a second language
B．man's ability of learning a second language
C．that language can help brain power
D．language learning and maths study

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In English，we have a saying that goes，“Use it or lose it.”It means that if you do not continue to use a skill，you might lose the ability to do so.
We can say this about language learning，including learning new words. 36.　.
Our reader Banin has a question today.Here is the question：how can I improve my vocabulary
It is a great question！The answer will help many English learners.Here are four things you can do.
Read，read，read
Read a lot！Look for new stories，websites，magazines and books on subjects that you enjoy.While reading，try to guess the meanings of new words from their context. 37.　.If there are television shows or films that you love in English，watch them with English subtitles to learn new words and hear how we say them.
Write about it
But，don't just read.Write！A great way to practice what you read is to write about it. 38.　.Another thing you can write about is what you did today.If you spent time with a friend or family member，went to an event，had a delicious meal or did something else，write about it!
Learn word forms
39.　.When you learn a new word, learn its other forms.For example，the word“sleepy”is an adjective.But it has noun，verb and adverb forms.You can make a word form chart in a notebook or wireless device and write a sentence example for each form.
40.　
Another powerful memory tool is word association：use your imagination to create mental images linked to new words.For example，when I say“tasty”，what food image do you see in your mind？Keep that food image in your mind and always mentally connect it to the word“tasty”．Then，the next time you try to remember the word“tasty”，the mental image will appear.
A．Use word families
B．Use word association
C．Here's another great technique
D．If you do not use the new words often，you might forget them
E．Then，you can check the meanings in a paper dictionary or online
F．For example，if you read a web story about the best fitness apps of 2022，write about it
G．Writing can be a great way of properly learning the kind of vocabulary you need to describe your own life and interests

(2023·湖北省汉川市第二中学高一期中)
Peter woke up early in the morning.He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have his breakfast as quickly as possible.
“Why are you in such a hurry，early bird？”Mum asked him.“We will have an English spelling test today，Mum，”Peter said.“Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get 100 scores.I've been studying the word list since last week.Although the words are difficult, I am well prepared for them.”
Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove down.
Thirty words later，the test papers were collected by Mr. White.“I am to mark your papers now，”he told the class.After marking the test papers，Mr. White said，“Three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores.Peter，David and Mary got 100 percent on the spelling test！”Mr. White praised them.Meanwhile，he gave the three students each a dictionary.Peter's was an English-Chinese Dictionary—the one he liked best.Peter was so excited that he held it high when his classmates cheered.“This is my happiest moment，”Peter thought.
After Mr. White gave the test paper back，Peter had a look at the words，feeling proud of his spelling.All of a sudden，the word“contribution”confused him.It didn't seem right.Peter began to compare them after taking out the word list.“C-o-n-t-r-i-b-u-s-i-o-n，” he whispered.He had spelled it wrong.
“What am I to do？”Peter said to himself.“I expect my classmates to think I'm a master in spelling.If I tell Mr White one of my spelling words is wrong，I'll have to give my prize back，or I will become an example for telling a lie.”Staring at the red sign “100%”which was written at his test paper，Peter was lost in thought.After a while，he remembered a lesson Mum used to teach him，“We ought to be an honest person.”
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph 1：
Slowly, Peter raised his hand.
Paragraph 2：
Peter looked around and found many of his classmates were smiling at him.

M：When I was little，I had a family pet.Its name was Jupiter and it was a kitten.
I wanted a cat more than anything else，and finally my parents gave in and said that we could have one.We went to an animal home and saw dozens of kinds of cats.We went from cage to cage until we saw a little kitten at the back of one of the cages.It looked scared，but when I picked it up，it kept licking my hand and I knew it was the one we would bring home.After we got Jupiter home，I played with it all day.What I noticed when I played with it was that I would sneeze a lot and my arms became red.My nose would also be runny and my eyes would water.I tried to hide these signs from my mother，but she noticed them finally and told me that I was suffering from cats！Even worse，we couldn't keep Jupiter! That was a sad day in my young life.I thought I would never recover.But a lucky thing happened.One of our neighbors down the street was willing to take Jupiter in and I was able to visit it all the time，as long as I didn't get too close.
In the end，it wasn't such a terrible thing after all.

“Good morning，”the new teacher said.“I'm Ernesto Flores，your teacher for fifth grade.”In all his years in school，Julio had never heard a teacher use his or her first name.Of course，the students always found out what they were，but it was up to the students to discover this information for themselves.
“Now I'd like to find out who you are，”said Mr. Flores.He began to call the roll(点名)，starting with the boys.Julio shook his head.Teachers always began with the girls.
“Julio Sanchez，”called Mr. Flores，pronouncing it Hulio.That was the correct way to say the name in Spanish.
Several kids laughed.They had never heard Julio's name pronounced without the J.
Mr. Flores looked up from the roll book.“Isn't that how you say your name？”he asked Julio.“Or do you prefer Julio with a J？”
“At home, they call me Hulio.But at school everyone calls me Julio，”Julio said.
“Do you like two pronunciations of your name？”asked the teacher.“It's a good Spanish name and you should be proud of it.”
Julio smiled.“I know，”he said，“but it doesn't matter to me.”
“Are you sure？”asked Mr. Flores.“Your name is a very important part of you.”
Julio thought for a moment.“Okay，”he said.“From now on，everyone please call me Hulio.Puerto Rico, where I was born，used to be a Spanish colony(殖民地)．”
“That's right，”said Mr. Flores.“Can you tell us something about Puerto Rico？”
“I came here when I was only eight months old.I don't remember anything，”Julio replied.
“I think you can interview your parents instead，”Mr. Flores said.
Julio nodded.It would be fun to learn more about the place where he had been born.
Julio had to admit(承认)that Mr. Flores was creative and interesting.
文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文。Julio(胡里奥)的名字一直被念错，直到新老师Mr. Flores(弗洛里斯先生)的出现，让他坚持用正确发音读自己的西班牙语名字，也告诉他要去了解更多关于自己出生地的信息。
24．Why did Julio shake his head？ C

Part of the reason that English has grown as a world language is that it easily adjusts to change.However，this means that what one was taught as a child in school may be out of date many years later.When words or phrases change，it can make speakers feel“wrong”because they were taught that something else was“right”．
One example of this is a term connected to school itself.Today，it is common for people to say that they“graduated”high school or college.The word“graduate”has two common meanings.One is to mark off a series.The other meaning is closely related.As you move through school，you cross off a series of achievements：grade school，middle school，high school，and college.So，in a way，school itself is“graduated”．
So，when people used to speak of getting a degree，they said they“graduated from college”．“To graduate college”would have meant to mark it off by year—the first year，the second year etc.Similarly，“to graduate to college”would have meant to complete high school and move up to the next level.
But as happens often in English，when people understand your meaning，smaller words can disappear.“I graduated college”is now easy to say.This may distress people who were taught that you had to use“from”to be correct.But this is not the first time this phrase has been simplified.It used to be that you said，“I was graduated from college，”instead of，“I graduated from college.”
You can't know what English will keep and what it will lose.Who could imagine that we would still say we“dial”a phone number when we now push buttons on our cellphone Yet we know what it means.
文章大意：本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了英语的语言随着时代在不断变化，并以“graduate”为例进行了论证。
28．What do we know about the word “graduate”？ A
A．It has two similar meanings.
B．There was a change in its meanings.
C．It had nothing to do with school at first.
D．It got an extra meaning during its development.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The word ‘graduate’has two common meanings.”可知，graduate一词有相近的两个意思。故选A。
29．Which of the following is the newest usage of “graduate”？ D
A．I was graduated from college.
B．I was to graduate to college.
C．I graduated from college.
D．I graduated college.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Today，it is common for people to say that they‘graduated’high school or college.”可知，“graduate”的最新用法是“graduated high school”或“graduated college”。故选D。
30．The underlined word “distress” probably means？“ C ”．
A．change B．correct
C．worry D．hurt
解析： 词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“who were taught that you had to use‘from’to be correct”可知，对于那些被教授“I graduated from college”是正确的人而言，他们认为“I graduated college”是错误的说法，但是现在人们却经常这样使用，由此推断，这会让他们感到不安，故distress与worry的意思接近。故选C。
31．What's the best title for the text？ B
A．Right or wrong
B．Words come and go in English
C．English is a very changeable language
D．How should English be taught in school
解析： 标题判断题。根据第一段中的“Part of the reason that English has grown as a world language is that it easily adjusts to change.”可知，英语在发展变化；第二段至第四段举例说明了“graduate”的用法变化；最后一段中的“You can't know what English will keep and what it will lose.(你不知道英语会保留什么，会失去什么。)”点出了文章的主旨，故B项(英语中此消彼长的词汇)是最合适的标题。故选B。
D
If English means endless new words，difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation，you are wrong.Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language
According to a new study by a British university，learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power.Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter.This is the area of the brain which processes(处理)information.It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.
The study also found the effect is greater when the younger people learn a second language.A team led by Dr Andrea Mechelli，from University College London，took a group of Britons who only spoke English.They were compared with a group of “early bilinguals” who had learnt a second language before the age of five，as well as a number of later learners. Scans showed that grey matter density in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language.But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language，the smaller the difference.“Our findings suggest that the structure(结构)of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language，”said the scientists.
It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales，has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills.“Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible(灵活的)，”he said.“You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.”
The findings had the same result in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and thirty-four.Reading，writing，and comprehension were all tested.The results showed that the younger they started to learn，the better.“Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world，”explained the scientists.
文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。研究表明学一门外语会让你变得更聪明。文章通过科学实验和分析对此进行说明。
32．The underlined word“bilingual”probably means？“ C ”．
A．a researcher on language learning
B．a second language learner
C．a person who can speak two languages
D．an active language learner
解析： 词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“who had learnt a second language before the age of five”可知，画线词指的是会说两种语言的人。故选C。
33．We may know from the scientific findings that A .
A．the earlier you start to learn a second language，the higher the grey matter density is
B．there is no difference between a later second language learner and one who doesn't know a second language
C．the experience of learning a second language has bad effect on people's brain
D．the ability of learning a second language is changing all the time
解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Scans showed that grey matter density in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language.But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language，the smaller the difference.”可知，研究表明会说两种语言的人大脑的灰质密度比不会说外语的人的密度大，但是学外语越晚，这种差距越小。所以学外语越早，大脑的灰质密度越大。故选A。
34．In the last two paragraphs，the author wants to tell us that B .
A．learning a second language is the same as studying maths
B．early learning of a second language helps you a great deal in studying other subjects
C．Italian is the best choice for you as a second language
D．you'd better choose the ages between 2 and 34 to learn a second language
解析： 推理判断题。根据最后两段内容可知，学习外语可以让我们的大脑更灵活，对各种不同的观点会有更好的理解力。由此可推知，学习外语对学习其他科目也有好处。故选B。
35．The main idea of this passage is C .
A．science on learning a second language
B．man's ability of learning a second language
C．that language can help brain power
D．language learning and maths study
解析： 主旨大意题。本文主要通过对科学研究的介绍和分析，说明学习一门外语会增强我们大脑的能力，让人变得更聪明，而且学习外语越早效果越好。故选C。
第二节(共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In English，we have a saying that goes，“Use it or lose it.”It means that if you do not continue to use a skill，you might lose the ability to do so.
We can say this about language learning，including learning new words. 36.D　.
Our reader Banin has a question today.Here is the question：how can I improve my vocabulary
It is a great question！The answer will help many English learners.Here are four things you can do.
Read，read，read
Read a lot！Look for new stories，websites，magazines and books on subjects that you enjoy.While reading，try to guess the meanings of new words from their context. 37.E　.If there are television shows or films that you love in English，watch them with English subtitles to learn new words and hear how we say them.
Write about it
But，don't just read.Write！A great way to practice what you read is to write about it. 38.F　.Another thing you can write about is what you did today.If you spent time with a friend or family member，went to an event，had a delicious meal or did something else，write about it!
Learn word forms
39.C　.When you learn a new word, learn its other forms.For example，the word“sleepy”is an adjective.But it has noun，verb and adverb forms.You can make a word form chart in a notebook or wireless device and write a sentence example for each form.
40.B　
Another powerful memory tool is word association：use your imagination to create mental images linked to new words.For example，when I say“tasty”，what food image do you see in your mind？Keep that food image in your mind and always mentally connect it to the word“tasty”．Then，the next time you try to remember the word“tasty”，the mental image will appear.
A．Use word families
B．Use word association
C．Here's another great technique
D．If you do not use the new words often，you might forget them
E．Then，you can check the meanings in a paper dictionary or online
F．For example，if you read a web story about the best fitness apps of 2022，write about it
G．Writing can be a great way of properly learning the kind of vocabulary you need to describe your own life and interests

文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何学好一门外语。
解析：
56. 考查连词。句意：学习一门外语是一项具有挑战性的任务，但是也可能是非常愉快的经历。根据句意可知，前后句为转折关系，故填but。
57．考查名词。tip为可数名词，此处被a few所修饰，应用名词复数，故填tips。
58. 考查代词。句意：你会发现学习半个小时比一次学习一整个单元更有效。此处it为形式宾语，动词不定式短语to study...为真正的宾语，故填it。
59．考查非谓语动词。句意：第二，用语言进行交流。此处应用动词不定式作目的状语。故填to communicate。
60．考查非谓语动词。句意：不要担心出错。介词about后应用动名词，故填getting。
61．考查词性转换。句意：重要的是要建立你说话的自信。设空前有形容词性物主代词your修饰，此处应用名词作宾语，故填confidence。
62. 考查定语从句的引导词。设空处引导非限制性定语从句，解释说明前面的整个句子，在从句中充当主语，应用which，故填which。
63. 考查固定短语。句意：此外，要习惯听正常语速的日常用语。get used to doing sth.“习惯于做某事”，为固定搭配。故填used。
64．考查词性转换。设空处修饰动词短语listen to，应用副词作状语，故填frequently。
65．考查非谓语动词。句意：最重要的是，享受学习语言的乐趣。have fun(in)doing“做某事有乐趣”，为固定用法。故填learning。

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
(2023·湖北省汉川市第二中学高一期中)
Peter woke up early in the morning.He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have his breakfast as quickly as possible.
“Why are you in such a hurry，early bird？”Mum asked him.“We will have an English spelling test today，Mum，”Peter said.“Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get 100 scores.I've been studying the word list since last week.Although the words are difficult, I am well prepared for them.”
Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove down.
Thirty words later，the test papers were collected by Mr. White.“I am to mark your papers now，”he told the class.After marking the test papers，Mr. White said，“Three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores.Peter，David and Mary got 100 percent on the spelling test！”Mr. White praised them.Meanwhile，he gave the three students each a dictionary.Peter's was an English-Chinese Dictionary—the one he liked best.Peter was so excited that he held it high when his classmates cheered.“This is my happiest moment，”Peter thought.
After Mr. White gave the test paper back，Peter had a look at the words，feeling proud of his spelling.All of a sudden，the word“contribution”confused him.It didn't seem right.Peter began to compare them after taking out the word list.“C-o-n-t-r-i-b-u-s-i-o-n，” he whispered.He had spelled it wrong.
“What am I to do？”Peter said to himself.“I expect my classmates to think I'm a master in spelling.If I tell Mr White one of my spelling words is wrong，I'll have to give my prize back，or I will become an example for telling a lie.”Staring at the red sign “100%”which was written at his test paper，Peter was lost in thought.After a while，he remembered a lesson Mum used to teach him，“We ought to be an honest person.”
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph 1：
Slowly, Peter raised his hand.
Paragraph 2：
Peter looked around and found many of his classmates were smiling at him.

Paragraph 1：
Slowly，Peter raised his hand.“Mr. White，I didn't get 100 percent on the test.I missed a word.”He stood up and handed his teacher the dictionary he liked best and his test paper.“I spelled contribution with‘s-i’instead of‘t-i’．”Peter could feel his classmates looking at him with surprise as he walked back to his desk.Mr. White held up Peter's test paper.“Class，”he said，“Peter did something even more important than spelling every word correctly on a test.”Mr. White smiled at Peter.“He taught us all a lesson on being honest.”
Paragraph 2：
Peter looked around and found many of his classmates were smiling at him.“Peter，I want you to have this dictionary because you set a good example for all of us，”Mr. White said.Peter took the dictionary from his teacher and expressed his thanks to Mr. White. Meanwhile，he couldn't wait to show it to Mum and tell her one of his best days ever.
